Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Step 1: Create a processing script, Step 2: Upload script and data to Amazon S3, Step 3: Configure the ProcessingJob, Step 4: Execute the ProcessingJob, Step 5: Verify the job output
Why this is correct
This order follows the logical workflow: you must first create the script, then upload it and data to S3, then configure the job with the script location, then run the job, and finally verify the results.
- ✗
Step 1: Upload script and data to Amazon S3, Step 2: Create a processing script, Step 3: Configure the ProcessingJob, Step 4: Execute the ProcessingJob, Step 5: Verify the job output
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you cannot upload a script before creating it. The script must exist before uploading it to S3.
- ✗
Step 1: Configure the ProcessingJob, Step 2: Create a processing script, Step 3: Upload script and data to Amazon S3, Step 4: Execute the ProcessingJob, Step 5: Verify the job output
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you cannot configure a processing job without having a script and data already uploaded to S3. Configuration requires specifying the S3 locations.
- ✗
Step 1: Create a processing script, Step 2: Configure the ProcessingJob, Step 3: Upload script and data to Amazon S3, Step 4: Execute the ProcessingJob, Step 5: Verify the job output
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you must upload the script and data to S3 before configuring the job, as the configuration depends on the S3 paths.
